Tiny Toads

Tiny Toads by Pragmatic Play invites players to a pond that’s overflowing with win potential. You’re invited to join cute frogs in this slot machine featuring charming visuals and unique features. 

But is it original enough to be a new classic or will it just hop along with the rest? Let’s dive in and find out.

An Enchanting Game

The 5×4 reels are set against a tranquil pond adorned with water lilies and lush vegetation, offering 50 paylines in the base game–expanding to 100 paylines during certain features. 

When it comes to the gameplay itself, Tiny Toads revolves around special symbols of aquatic animals, collecting multicoloured fireflies, and triggering special features.

Wild symbols, represented by lily pads, substitute for other symbols to form wins, while scatter symbols trigger the much-anticipated Free Spins feature where you can activate the fireflies you collected. Starting with 10 free spins, you can retrigger the feature to keep the wins coming.

These fireflies—available in purple, red, and green—are key to unlocking modifiers and boosting your chances of winning. 

The purple fireflies grant cash prizes, free spins, or multipliers of up to 5x. Red fireflies unlock gleamers that reveal cash prizes and clues for jackpots worth up to 3,500x your stake. Green fireflies expand the reels, increasing paylines to 100 and creating more opportunities for winning combinations.

Is Tiny Toads Worth It?

We found Tiny Toads to be an entertaining slot with a lot of personality, mostly blooming from its adorable theme. It also feels refreshing, with a lovely mix of whimsy, cute visuals and thrilling mechanics. 

Although the visual is serene, there is some action to be seen in the Free Spins round, where modifiers like expanding reels and multipliers take centre stage. The base game, while charming, might feel a bit shallow without these features in play. 

High volatility is another factor to consider—big wins are possible, but the journey there can be difficult (like a certain Froggy trying to cross the road.)

While the base game might feel a little bare, the firefly collection and Free Spins features more than make up for it. This slot is best suited for players who enjoy high volatility and are willing to take a leap of faith for the chance at substantial rewards.Despite its drawbacks, Tiny Toads is a delightful addition to Pragmatic Play’s lineup.
